Twelve Apostles is the common name for a complex of six double-row Baroque tenement houses that stood next to the town hall building, at the town market square. Along with the 14th-century Church of the Savior and the Kluczbork castle, they belonged to the city's greatest monuments. Two of them have been preserved from the original complex of buildings to this day. In 1925, the remaining tenement houses burned down, and a year later arcaded underpasses with a balcony were erected in their place, above which – in the pediment on the roof – a stone bas-relief depicting the town hall with Baroque houses was placed. A square with flowerbeds planted with flowers and shrubs adjoins the area. In the Jan Dzierżon Museum in Kluczbork, one can see the painting "12 Apostles. South Side" by Bogusław Jarkłowski. It depicts the town hall with the tower and the Baroque tenement houses adjacent to it from the south side as they were at the end of the 19th century.
